"What makes Ebola deadly is the way in which one’s immune system reacts as time goes on. Aside from creating hemorrhaging and leaking between cells, Ebola primarily kills when a person’s body releases a massive amount of enzymes (a cytokine storm) and an overabundant, and fatal amount, of immune cells being activated.

That’s where marijuana comes in as a potential saving grace to those afflicted with Ebola. As Joe Martin points out, cannabis is contains natural antiretrovirals and is also an anti-inflammatory able to reduce the harm to the body caused by a cytokine storm."


 Cannabis + Orange Juice = My solution for a long healthy life, seriously.. between the two, you cant go wrong.

I tried to look up RisiR but, I guess they're currently infracted or something... Is that a compliment or just a general misinterpretation of my name?

...Dr. David B. Allen, medical director of Cannabis Sativa, Inc, and Brad Morehouse, founder of NewCure.org, both believe cannabis can combat Ebola in the same way.

Strong evidence suggests that cannabis can be a positive treatment for those suffering from Ebola, but all of which should be taken with a grain of salt. These are hypotheses, based on research involving other viruses, and not proven fact. Still, the argumentation is enough to warrant a clinical trial. Worst to worst, Ebola sufferers will smoke a bit of weed, which won’t make things worse…we hope.

Obvious bias accompanied by lots of unreferenced hand-waving.

I believe Apple Juice can have a very positive effect on Ebola patients. But only if you buy Apple Juice made from my special strain of Apples.

This is just hypothesis. Except it's not, but it is.

Buy Apple Juice, especially my Apple Juice. The reason Ebola has killed so many people is because they didn't drink my Apple Juice.

I bet when your lungs are bleeding and you can hardly breath, nothin feels better than filling your lungs with burning smoke.

This article isn't even originally from an reputable news source, it's from some pothead blogsite: "Smoking Marijuana Can Protect You From Ebola: Is there anything weed can't do?". (http://www.mtlblog.com/2014/10/smoking-marijuana-can-protect-you-from-ebola/#)

Yes, make you smart.
